Great Canadian Entertainment’s Casino Resort Toronto has opened new high-limit slots and high-limit table games spaces, further expanding Canada’s newest and largest casino resort.

The $1 billion destination, which was opened in June 2023, already featured 328,000 sq. ft. of gaming space, along with various other entertainment and hospitality amenities. Now, the high-limit spaces provide customers with a VIP-style experience.

The new High-Limit Table Games Room features 26 live tables offering a wide range of options for players, including Single Zero Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat, and a range of high-stakes private tables that offer unlimited free hands for uninterrupted gaming. There are also dedicated VIP areas including a customer lounge, a VIP lounge and dining area. A private outdoor patio with an expansive view of Woodbine racetrack will soon be available.

Meanwhile, the newly expanded High Limit-Slots area has more than doubled in size to 5,700 sq. ft. and houses over 220 premium slot machines, including featured slots such as Madame X, Wild Frontier, Lightning Cash, Dragon Cash and Buffalo Link and classics like Cleopatra, Bonus Times and Blazing 7s. Meanwhile, there are 17 multi-game video poker and blackjack machines and 37 player-selectable multi-denomination machines.

“We are excited to unveil this latest phase in the continued growth of Great Canadian Toronto,” said Matt Anfinson, Great Canadian Entertainment CEO. “With these unique amenities available exclusively to our VIP gaming customers at Great Canadian Toronto, the customer experience at Canada’s newest and largest casino resort has taken another tremendous step forward.”

Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto also features two PlaySmart Centres on the gaming floor, filled with interactive tools and responsible gambling resources available to all players, including information on how to participate in Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG)’s voluntary My PlayBreak program if they choose to take a break from gambling.

The new high-limit areas aren’t the first additions to the Vegas-style Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto since it launched.

Last summer, Great Canadian added a poker room to the venue. The room, which houses 30 tables on a private floor with electronic table games and slots available, also offers players entry into some of Canada’s largest poker tournaments. The Toronto casino hosted a World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit event from March 22 to April 1 of this year in collaboration with GGPoker.

Great Canadian has also been changing things over in B.C.

After it took over the branding of the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver last December, the operator has sold two Vancouver Island casinos in recent months.

First Casino Nanaimo and then Elements Casino Victoria have been acquired by the Snuneymuxw First Nation, a First Nation of the Coast Salish People located on territory that spans the eastern coast of Vancouver Island and nearby land.
